wazighelder Three regular seeds were placed directly in the medium. All three cracked within 48–72 hours.
By day 4, all seedlings broke through the soil with strong curvature and healthy colour.
Two seedlings still carried their seed shell, which is normal and expected to fall off naturally.
Hello cuties! ^^ 💚
Environment:
• Medium is 70% Plagron Promix + 30% cactus mix, watered with SPA
• Bathroom germination at ~22–25°C
• Now moved under the LED at ≈120 PPFD and a VPD of 0.8 kPa
Very vigorous start for a tropical pure sativa hybrid. Medium is kept lightly moist, no nutrients added yet.
Plants will remain in small pots until growth stabilises, then move to 3L Air-Pots.
Humidity will be lowered gradually, and the LED intensity will increase over time.
Why this grow:
I’ve grown autos and mixed indica–sativa strains before, and this is my first true pure sativa project.
I chose ACE Seeds because I wanted something more natural, clean and classic. Honduras × Panama felt like the perfect introduction into tropical sativa growing: uplifting, clear and expressive without being overwhelmingly strong.
The end goal is to grow Congo, probably after this run.
Congo’s reputation for a clean, clear high —no mental mist, energetic, soft and warm —fits with what I enjoy most about cannabis. The strain also carries a cultural and historical dimension that fascinates me.
Everything I learn here (indoor growing, light management, stretch control, LST, VPD, nutrient timing, etc) will help me prepare for that bigger project. I’ve read Congo can be more challenging to grow, while this run is known to be much more stable thanks to the Panama F10 parent (!).
